Settings with the System Assistant
The description below generally refers to the procedure required to "CHANGE" system settings using the
System Assistant. Other options for editing the settings, such as "DISPLAY", "PRINT", and "DELETE",
are described under Menu Guided Navigation. They will only be referred to here if further information is
required.
This section is based on the structure of the menu tree.
The sub-sections are structured as follows:
• Indication of the key combination required for the menu path to the menu item in question, in the
heading. From the "System Assistant" menu, all you need to do is enter the digit combination,
then carry out the settings. Any inputs such as "phone number" that are required in the menu path
must be confirmed with the "OK" Foxkey.
• Complete menu path reference.
• Description of possible changes.
• Where appropriate, a short explanation of the contents of the menu item and the input itself.
Abbreviated dialling
Abbreviated dialling numbers make it easier to dial frequently used numbers. An internal or external
phone number and a name can be stored under each abbreviated number. Once the abbreviated dialling
number is stored in the system, it can be accessed by all phones. Phone locks can be set up in such a way
that the abbreviated dialling numbers are still available.
When storing an external number you must also enter the exchange access prefix (i.e. the number you
need to dial to access the exchange network). Use a hyphen to separate prefix and number.
If you also enter a name in the abbreviated dialling list you can dial someone by keying in his name instead
of the number (dialling by name). The front portion only of a number may also be entered. The rear
portion must then be suffix dialled manually.
Example: The number 0-001212 and the name "NY" (for New York) are stored under the abbreviated
dialling number 7500. Any user who wants to call Manhattan, New York from abroad, simply dials "NY"
by name, then adds the local number.
Changing the Name and Phone Number of an Abbreviated
Dialling Number
Menu path: 1-Abbreviated dialling number.
Abbreviated dialling numbers from 7000 to 7999 are predefined in the system. These numbers can be
allocated names and phone numbers.
The display prompts the name currently allocated to the abbreviated dialling number. If you are not
overwriting a known abbreviated dialling number but simply creating a new one, enter "-" instead of a
name. You will obtain the first freely available abbreviated dialling number.
A name can consist of up to 17 characters and must start with a letter.
